Man, I must be blind because I can't find out how to edit my listing or post any pics. There is no edit option on my listing. Can anyone help a guy out??

ok thanks David got it going. I did add 3 images which do show up but I was hoping to have an image in the listing instead of the "no image avaliable". How can I do this?

David,
I've been messing around with the search criteria, and it does not work? is this coming online later?
When I try to search just using the state name nothing is found.
When I try to search just using the zip nothing is found.
When someone rates this ad, what is the criteria for Excellent, VG, G, fair, poor. I see some very good detailers with very poor ratings, are people just being vindictive or uninformed to the ratings?
I sure hope you drop all the lousy ads that don't have any images or extensive info. I hate looking through all the ads and seeing a MAJORITY with no intro image and lack detailied info (kind of ironic from DETAILERS).
Thanks for the efforts on your end to make this happen.

I am curious as well because mine has one rating of 1 star. I have a new business to the area with a new name and my only clients so far have been friends and word of mouth. It really gets me peeved that someone will 'rate' me while having no experience with my business. Is there anything that can be done about it?

David, rather than parse results by city/state it may be much simpler by area code or zip (if $ZIPSEARCH=06084 return $ZIP=06***). Right? Maybe? Quote:

Not a single client of mine is a member of Autopia, yet I have a rating of 1.5 stars? I think someone is being vindictive there.
